Hey, folks, time to summarize what happened in last round. There was some interesting things.
First of all, Sporting failed to beat Maritimo and game ended 1:1, despite that Sporting completely dominated game. Great chance for Porto increase gap from Sporting. Yeah, but no. They weren't able to beat Gil Vicente, despite that Gilv Vicente player got red card on 3rd minute. Actually, Gil Vicente were leading at one moment, but Porto managed to make score 1:1.
Winners of this round is Benfica after beating Guimaraes 3:0. Still, it's early to talk about Benfica returning to title race, they're still 10 points behind Porto.

There are eleven weeks to go for the end of the season and Porto are still keeping a six-point gap with Sporting. It was important for Sporting to defeat Porto some weeks ago but it ended by a draw like 2-2. Sporting will just hope to see Porto making some mistakes that can help them get closer to the lead. And there can be a chance for Sporting actually. Because I have checked Porto's fixture. And I saw that Porto have two difficult games against Benfica and Braga and they are both away games. Sporting have only one tough game which is against Benfica but it is a home game for Sporting. The final weeks can be really exciting.
I don't think that Porto is going to have too much of a problem from Sporting because they still have a really good and comfortable lead in my opinion.
I do not think that they are going to be worried too much about Sporting at this point and will be looking to get better at their own game.
I really don't believe that Porto is going to be worried too much about the away games. because right now they are really confident and should be able to beat the teams quite easily. Sporting is going to have to work really hard to catch up to them.
Tonight match between B-SAD vs Pacos De Ferreira actually Pacos not in the good shape especially their away records match this season also really bad and for home team B-SAD also have to struggle to avoid relegated zone but head to head statistics showing Pacos has been better than home team because they can win 3 times from 5 latest matches against B-SAD and after seeing this factor i personally more prefer to pick Pacos win because they have good opportunity to win this match
in my opinion this will be a game in which Pacos De Ferreira will win, they have had a not too bad performance, in the last games they played many games and they only won 1 game and had a defeat, something that in my opinion cannot be said that It's very bad in relation to B-SAD who will surely lose this game, they are in the relegation zone, they conceded many goals (they have the last defense) and in the last games they lost 3 games and drew 1 and won 1 goal this performance is not good , this just shows their weakness, and it is certain that the iron Pacos De Ferreira will win this gameI don't think that Paços de Ferreira is in the best of form right now but they are still better than B-SAD. Because B-SAD Are absolutely at the bottom of the table and in the relegation zone. and if we look at the last 5 matches I think Paços de Ferreira has a far better record than their opponent. In this match, surely they are going to score because the defense of B-SAD Is really bad right now. and I don't think they will be able to stop the attack of Ferreira.

The host are doing poorly, I took a close look at the standing observing they have been in the red zone for some time now.
In today's game, it should be a win or draw for the visitors, they seems to be favourites for this game with the lesser odds.
Although it's football with home advantage I think the host belenenses have a chance more of a draw if I should say.

Yesterday game was so interesting for Benfica that was leading against Boavista with 2:0 in the first half that made many viewers to concluded that the match will end up for the favour of Benfica. But the game later this change second half that made Benfica to equalize the match with 2:2 that is making Benfica fans believe that their team will definitely win their next match to improve their point.
For me Benfica is one of the best teams that Portugal has, just like Porto, in fact in the UCL they are one of the teams that shine the most, this leaves it for granted that Benfica does not doubt that they will do their best to stay among the best, in addition the Portuguese league has one of the most valued clubs for some players who are of Venezuelan and Colombian origin, in fact a Venezuelan who grew up in Venezuela and went to Portugal preferred to play for Portugal due to the facilities and better conditions of life and sport, that is why I respect the football of Portugal a lot.

This was Benfica's second draw so far this season, and Boavista proved their dominance this season as they continued to draw more. In last night's match Boavista managed to put up a good fight in the second half, Boavista proved to be able to get the equalizer in the second half and that's because Benfica made the mistake of using a more defensive strategy in the second half. This allowed the home team to maximize attack after attack until the match ended in a draw, and I bet on Benfica's victory @1.4x and I lost. 
Benfica had a strategic mistake in this match. Benfica have drawn three games this season, two of them against Boavista. Boavista is a team whose main goal is to draw matches. They have played 23 matches, of which 13 have been drawn. Benfica's players must have been careful before performing against such a team. Benfica led 2-0 in the first half. In the second half, they should have played completely defensively to ensure victory. They made a mistake, the defenders did not play well. As a result they have shared points.

Benfica today simply choked against Boavista. They had 2:0 lead against Boavista, but didn't managed to win and let Boavista to score 2 goals in 2nd half. And it's not bad luck or something, Boavist had very solid game and even had significantly more goal attempts than Benfica.
That's a big surprise for me. When I saw second goal of Benfica I thought the game is over. I was expecting something like 0-3 score but 2-2 finish is a shocker. That's a big step for Boavista to stay in the league though, they were having an awful season. They still didn't get a win but this one point came out of nowhere. I don't think they expect to get any point from this game at start. Benfica is far behind now. After Moreirense draw this is second time they lost points against weak teams. I understand Gil Vicente loss because they are having a great season but these two draws made Benfica's job harder.
I never imagined Benfica would share the points in this match. Benfica is a strong team if we compare it with Boavista. As usual, Benfica was ahead with two goals in the first half. But their gameplay was not good enough. Players should have been more confident after scoring goals.
They should have scored full points in this match. I don't think there is a chance of winning the title. But they could fight for second place on the table. Now it seems that there will be no change in their position in the points table.

In this round Porto and Sporting have chance to get double digit leag against Benfica. Now it's difficult to see Benfica back in title race.

That is an extremely disappointing result from Benfica. And to think that they will also play Champions League next week, they have to play against Ajax, then it is a very bad rehearsal. The Benfica of the past What a 2-0 lead would never give this away again and would simply convert this to win we would think it would be 4-0 or 5-0 rather than 2-2. If they also play football against Ajax like this, they can forget about it.

as I predicted porto will be champions, at the beginning of the season I said that the moment they lost games against port and sporting they wouldn't be able to fight to be champions and knowing the portuguese league where porto has a great dominance was already easy to predict this outcome, I hope that in the future in portugal we can see more other teams win the portuguese league (I'm talking about teams that are not sporting, porto and benfica
Actually, the battle for the champion is not over yet, because they are only six points apart, Sporting CP still have hope, it is proven that even though last night they traveled to Porto headquarters but they were able to provide fierce resistance, even though S, Coates in Ganjar was red carded at minute 49, but they were still able to defend well, at the last minute of the match the referee had to issue 4 red cards because the match was getting hotter, maybe all players would be processed and who would definitely get sanctions from FIFA..Porto played well this season and they deserve to be the winners. They have a quite comfortable lead in their hand, 6 points to be exact.
Sporting has 54 and I think it will be really hard for them to catch up with Porto at this stage. But the competition is still well all throughout the table of this League.

Benfica must be really frustrated about being way behind Porto and Sporting in the standings now. They dominated the league for so many seasons but they haven't been able to do the same in the recent years. And it looks like one of the top 2 will reach the championship once more. Benfica need to fix their problems as soon as possible to be able to join this race. They won't be able to do so in this season maybe but they can do much better in the next season. They are a strong team but made simple mistakes so far.
